SV6 Rims on Omega

[Woodsy_]

Hi Guys,

Looking to make a few mods to my Omega Commodore... Can get a good set of SV6 Series 2 18s on the cheap... Anyone seen this done? Wondering how it will look without the SV6 bodykit... Looking to upgrade the rims on the cheap and this looks the best option..

Cheers

You would probably want to lower it a little just to match the look, but yep the sv6 rims are a good starting point.

Should fit no problem...looks tho id say it would look weird without the body kit...nothing photoshop cant do for you if you know how to use lol

[BigBoss]

Really Ignitionv6? I think they look good

[The X Man]

They look alright allthough i would of thought there would be more gap between the wheels and the guards as they aren't lowered.

[BigBoss]

Yep that is correct that photoshop is fe2

[KARTAL]

its a good start.. but wont look complete without some sssl springs in it and if you have the mud flaps ditch them aswell..

I think it will look mad

[BigBoss]

Me to, i picked up a set of ss rims the other day

Didn't realise this old thread got dug up. I ended up going ahead with this. I haven't lowered it yet, but will be the next on the list of things to do.

[BigBoss]

Looks good mate, i am glad you did it

[donkson]

Looks good man, im digging the white

Why do you have a bonnet protector? people hear seam to think they do more bad than good.

When I bought it it was a demo with 1000km on the clock and the bonnet protector was on there. I have noticed that there are some haters on here though. I've kept an eye on it, pulling it off every 4 weeks or so and not seen any damage so far, and the car is now just over 12 months old...

looks mad needs to be abit lower imo cheers.

Hi, just to give you an idea of the ride height. This is my Berlina but with SSV rims and king spring super lows. Yes I do have calais tail lights on a Berlina and I like it.



Cheers,

Looks the goods mate, but drop them mud flaps unless you really need them

What about Calais V 18s? I know where can buy a set after the 17th haha.

Woodsy, what is the difference in your ride, comparing 16" with 18" ?
I am considering a similar change ...

[Woodsy_]

Barely notice the change in ride to be honest. Definitely not worth worrying about in my opinion.

WOODSY: Thankyou for that; I'll save my money and that'll be nearly enough for another trip "down south"
